Mississauga, OntarioAges 8 years+ - NCT06839300Recruiting
Blood biomarkers in spinal cord injury study
This study is looking for people with a spinal cord injury from a blunt force (not a penetrating injury like a gunshot or stab wound) to see if certain substances in the blood (called biomarkers) can help doctors understand the injury better and predict recovery. It involves an initial blood sample within 24 hours of the injury and follow-up assessments.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 19 years+ - NCT06841770RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a delivery device for spinal cord injury treatment
This trial tests a device that delivers a special cell therapy (LCTOPC1) into the spinal cord. It is for people with a recent or chronic spinal cord injury that is severe (no feeling or movement below the injury) or leaves some sensation but no movement.
Downey, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT06853015RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Double dose of 4-AP for spinal cord injury recovery

Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–85 - NCT06867809Recruiting
Spinal and brain stimulation for arm movement after neck injury
This study tests whether using a combination of spinal and brain stimulation can help improve arm and hand movement in people who have had a cervical spinal cord injury (neck area) at least one year ago. It is for those with some remaining movement but not full strength.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06922890RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for chronic spinal cord injury (AIS-A/B)
This trial tests a new gene therapy called STUP-001 that aims to repair spinal cord damage directly. It is for people who have had a traumatic spinal cord injury with complete or near-complete paralysis (AIS-A or B) for at least 6 months.
SeoulAges 19–60 - NCT06939660Recruiting
Brain-spinal cord stimulation for walking after spinal cord injury
This trial tests if combining brain-computer interface technology with spinal cord stimulation can help improve walking in people with chronic spinal cord injury. It aims to see if this approach works when standard rehab has stopped helping.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 14–65 - NCT06976229RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell therapy for recent spinal cord injury
This phase 1 trial tests a new treatment made from stem cells (XS228) for people who had a spinal cord injury 14 to 60 days ago. Doctors want to see if it's safe and if it might help with recovery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT07007884Recruiting
Ear stimulation to improve heart function after spinal cord injury
This trial uses mild electrical stimulation through the ear to see if it can improve how the heart works in people who have had a spinal cord injury. It is designed for individuals with neck-level injuries who also experience episodes of sudden high blood pressure (autonomic dysreflexia).
AnkaraAges 18–60 - NCT07036107Recruiting
Exoskeleton rehab for spinal cord injury in Spain
This trial tests whether a wearable exoskeleton can help people with recent spinal cord injury improve their walking ability and quality of life. It focuses on patients treated in the Spanish healthcare system.
Toledo, Castille-La ManchaAges 18–70 - NCT07090057Recruiting
Targeting the plantaris muscle in ankle surgery for children
This study tests if removing the plantaris muscle during surgery improves ankle movement in children with tight heel cords. It aims to see if this extra step leads to better outcomes.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 4–17 - NCT07109804Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation to improve walking after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether stimulating a small area deep in the brain (the cuneiform nucleus) with a device called deep brain stimulation (DBS) can help people walk better after a spinal cord injury. The goal is to see if it improves walking speed and stability.
Miami, FloridaAges 22–70 - NCT07139496Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for injury recovery
This trial tests if placing electrodes near the injury site and in the lower back can help people with spinal cord injury recover movement or function. You must have had the injury for more than 2 years.
Hong KongAges 18–70 - NCT07147296Recruiting
Implant to manage blood pressure swings after spinal cord injury
This trial tests an implanted device that may help control drops in blood pressure caused by spinal cord injury. If you often feel dizzy or lightheaded due to low blood pressure, this study could explore whether the device improves stability.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18–75 - NCT07165353Recruiting
Virtual walking to reduce nerve pain after spinal cord injury

Nottwil, Canton of LucerneAges 18–75 - NCT07234903Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation therapy for walking recovery
This trial tests if an electrical stimulation device placed in the spine can help people with spinal cord injury improve their ability to walk. It is for adults who had a traumatic injury either very recently (within 6 weeks) or more than a year ago.

GhentAges Any age - NCT06480838Recruiting
Brain blood flow and thinking after traumatic brain injury
This study looks at how the brain controls its own blood flow after a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). It uses MRI scans and thinking tests to understand recovery and help improve care for people like you.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for traumatic spinal cord injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 180 recruiting traumatic spinal cord injury studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a traumatic spinal cord injury trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a traumatic spinal cord injury trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
